Jack and Jill is a comedy starring Adam Sandler as Jack and Jill and Al Pacino as himself. The movie also had some pretty big actors playing small parts. Some of these actors include Johnny Depp, Regis Philbin, David Spade and Shaquille O’Neal.
Jack is a producer who is on the verge of losing a big Dunkin’ Donuts commercial. The only way to keep the commercial is to get Al Pacino to star in it. Jack must get Al Pacino to do the commercial while putting up with his twin sister Jill, who is visiting over the holidays. Jill causes many problems for Jack during the movie.
The actors did a good job, but the story wasn’t that exciting. The movie had some very funny parts. Adam Sandler playing both twins added a special quality to the movie, but Sandler’s “Jill” could be easily distinguished as a man.
This movie was very different from the movies Adam Sandler typically stars in. This movie portrays Sandler as two very different people which probably made the movie a very difficult challenge.
The movie was average. Every once in a while this movie would have a funny moment, but most of the time it was boring, unexciting, and lifeless. I was also the only one in the theater when I went to watch the movie. The movie is not worth the price of the ticket.
